The fifty-second round: a narrow victory
With this goal, the game had to start again with a rush to get the ball back, and the men of both teams returned to their respective positions and set up their positions. Under the bell of the new referee, the people of the two teams went out one after another, like two groups of red-eyed beasts.
Zhao Zheng took the lead, ran in the front, and was the first to grab the ball and gain an opportunity for himself. Because the Fire Dragon team had just lost a point, he was a little anxious in his heart, and after grabbing the ball ball, he didn't pass it to others, but rushed up with the ball alone.
The Blade Array is connected in a line with several people as the vanguard, and these few people are condensed into a powerful offensive force, and there are gaps on both sides, which can be easily attacked.
Zhao Zheng avoided its edge, took the ball and drove straight from the north side, and killed in the east formation, when he rushed halfway through, he encountered the group of people who were in charge of defending the Spirit Fox team, and there were as many as six people. He performed Luo Yanbu's light skill, and avoided the pinching attacks of these people with his ingenious posture, flashing the four of them one after another. These four people didn't even touch the corners of Zhao Zheng's clothes, but just pounced on the afterimage left by Zhao Zheng. Zhao Zheng hit the backfield of the West Formation, saw the opportunity, hit a volley, and the powerful bow ball went straight to the Merry Eye.
But at the moment when the ball was about to shoot into the ring, a big hand stretched out out of nowhere, stopped in the middle of the road, and forcibly intercepted the ball and stopped it. This is the blocking net of the Spirit Fox Team. He put the ball at his feet, hid his right hand behind him, and secretly moved it twice, relieving the sharp pain in his palm. It was the ball just now that was so powerful that it had already turned his palms red.
A hint of disappointment flashed on Zhao Zheng's face, and he immediately cheered up and stared at the eyes of the blocker. This is used to determine the direction of the opponent's kick.
The net is aimed at the direction of your own heads. Kicked the ball out. The ball landed in a straight line next to the ball heads, and was stopped by one of them with his chest.
The Spirit Fox team launched a counterattack, and the two sides went back and forth, fighting around the ball ball, basically every few moments, the ball would fall into the feet of different teams. Time passed slowly in this scramble, getting closer and closer to the end of the game.
Two quarters of an hour after the game, the Linghu team grabbed the ball again. Kick the ball out from a long distance. Most of the members of the Fire Dragon Team were too far away from the ball, and they could only rely on Du Wan, who was guarding the wind and flow, to stop him, only to see him fly up, but he jumped a little earlier and pounced. By the time he fell, the ball had already pierced the ring of the Merry Eye, giving the Spirit Fox team another point.
Counting this point, the Spirit Fox team has already scored two points and occupies a huge advantage.
Zhao Zheng witnessed the whole process of Juqiu from flying out to scoring, in his opinion. This ball is easy to catch and doesn't have much force. The angle is not so tricky, Du Wan failed to catch it, it is really substandard. Combined with these two goals conceded, he finally determined one thing, Duwan, this guy is obviously not working hard, and he is not playing well at all!
Maybe Duvan received too many balls in the last game and was a little tired, so he was lazy.
It may also be that Du Wan received the benefits of Xia Bafeng, so he deliberately dismantled the platform of the Fire Dragon Team.
If this is just an ordinary game, then that's fine, Zhao Zhengshang can bear it. But behind this game is a bet that he will not lose, and if he loses, he will have to pay a price he cannot afford. He must not allow that to happen, and since he does not allow it, he must find a way to change the status quo.
Zhao Zheng walked towards the merry eyes of the eastern array with a cold face, staring at Du Wan with a cold gaze, the latter quickly noticed his gaze, revealing a strange look, his eyes moved stupidly, and he didn't dare to face his compelling gaze. Seeing Du Wan so weak-hearted, he was even more determined in his guess.
"Elder Du, probably you are a little tired, so your strength has decreased, and you have conceded two goals in a row, I hope that in the next game, you can continue to work hard and don't let this happen again. To tell you the truth, this game is very important to me, and I made a bet with Xia Bafeng in private, and set up a bet on this game, and each bet on a very important lottery. If the Fire Dragons lose this game because of you, I will definitely try to get back the 50,000 taels of silver I paid you before. If I find out something worse, I'm afraid I'll not just get the money back, but I hope you can do it yourself. Zhao Zheng said coldly, and two cold gazes shot out of his eyes, like a sharp sword nailed to Du Wan's body.
Du Wan's face changed again, and it became even more ugly than just now, because Zhao Zheng said what was on his mind. He had previously accepted 80,000 taels of silver from Xia Bafeng, promised to help secretly in the game, deliberately lost a few goals, and for each goal he lost, Xia Bafeng gave him an additional 10,000 taels of silver after the game. He deliberately lost two goals just now, and he had already earned an extra 20,000 taels of silver for himself, which was not a small amount for him. But now that Zhao Zheng has exposed this matter, he is somewhat panicked.
Zhao Zheng is a hot figure in the Taishan faction recently, it is said that he has made several great achievements, and he has a good relationship with the second master of Sword Casting Villa, but he is a character who cannot afford to offend. Although Du Wan's strength is as high as Zhao Zheng, he is unwilling to anger Zhao Zheng and bring trouble to himself.
Du Wan's eyes rolled, and he decided to accept it when he saw it, and he would not be offended. Anyway, he has already helped the Linghu team win two points, and he has already completed his task, which is enough to explain to Xia Bafeng, and in the next game, he can go all out to fight and stop all the balls. He made up his mind, and said with a smile: "Elder Zhao, I was a little careless just now, and I definitely won't be in the future." You can rest assured, I promise to stop all the opponent's balls in the next game, and not miss a single ......."
"That's very good." When Zhao Zheng heard this, his face softened slightly, turned around and returned to his formation, and began to prepare for the next round of grabbing the ball.
Now the Fire Dragons have lost two goals in a row, and there is only about half of the game time left, and the situation is quite unfavorable. Du Wan has just made a promise that in the next game, he should not dare to release water again. The rear basically has no worries, and the next question is how to turn defeat into victory.
Zhao Zheng thought about it for a while. I thought of a very violent solution. This approach is a bit too radical. will offend some people, but now, they can only be dead horses as live horse doctors.
"It's a big game for me, I have to win, don't blame me." Zhao Zheng muttered secretly in his heart, his eyes showed a fierce gaze, and the dantian in his lower abdomen was accelerated, causing a burning feeling. At an extremely fast speed, the internal force was instilled into his whole body, filling his body with surging power.
"Bell bell bell ......"
The bell rang, and at the first ring, Zhao Zheng rushed out like a sharp arrow off the string, and stepped on the bow ball under his feet. This time, he didn't pass the ball to others, nor did he kill it with the ball, but stood in place with the ball on his feet, waiting for the people of the Spirit Fox Team to come forward and snatch it.
As long as the person who wins the bow ball can play with the opponent's person. Zhao Zheng needs this privilege. He stared at the people rushing over on the other side, and set up the starting hand of the grappling fist. Several people on the same team shouted at him to pass the ball, but he turned a deaf ear and ignored it.
The first enemy rushed over, his speed was the fastest in the Spirit Fox Team, and his cultivation was also the highest. When he saw that Zhao Zheng dared to step on the bow ball and not move, his eyes were sharp, his hands were raised into palms, and he opened the monument with a single palm, and smashed it viciously into Zhao Zheng's head.
Zhao Zheng responded calmly, came first, stretched out the hand that formed a claw-like shape, bypassed the opponent's falling palm, pinched the opponent's wrist from above, and took advantage of the momentum of the opponent's fall, and clicked it with a little force, so that this palm was biased to the other side. The strength he used to defuse this move was very small, and it was in line with the knack of martial arts.
Pushing aside this palm, he blasted out his clenched fist, and with about fifty percent of his strength, he punched the opponent's arm, causing the arm joint to be misaligned and make a crunch sound. He took advantage of the victory, lowered his body, and threw two more punches at his opponent's legs, missing the other two joints, and then flew up with a kick that kicked the man somewhere else.
In just one shot, this martial artist of the Sixfold Heaven Realm was misplaced in three joints by Zhao Zheng and was knocked away!
This crisp and neat confrontation made the surrounding audience all stunned, and even had doubts about Zhao Zheng's true cultivation, suspecting that Zhao Zheng was not a six-fold heavenly martial artist, but a seven-fold heavenly martial artist!
The unlucky guy who had been knocked down let out a groan of pain, and was so badly injured that he could no longer compete. The game was stopped and the injured man was lifted out of Jucheng and replaced by another substitute. After the confrontation just now, the people of the Spirit Fox Team further realized Zhao Zheng's fierce strength, and the eyes that looked at Zhao Zheng all changed to varying degrees, and there was a faint trace of fear that could not be concealed!
The game restarted and the bell rang.
Zhao Zheng was the first to step on the bow ball again, and then stopped there, showing the starting style of grappling boxing, forming a fist with one hand and a claw with the other, and spit out majestically: "Next." ”
When the people of the Spirit Fox team heard this, they sensed that Zhao Zheng wanted to repeat his old tricks and use brute force to defeat one of their team members, so as to achieve the goal of weakening their strength. Several ball heads couldn't help but feel angry, several people glanced at each other, exchanged glances, and then the three of them rushed towards Zhao Zheng side by side, intending to bully Zhao Zheng with more and less, and avenge the player just now.
Zhao Zheng stepped on the ball, only he could shoot at the people of the Spirit Fox team, and the rest of the Fire Dragon team could only stare dryly even if they wanted to help. Several people warned Zhao Zheng and asked him to pass the ball to others so as not to suffer a loss. But Zhao Zheng still didn't listen and continued to hold the ball.
The three troops who rushed were all Sixfold Heavenly Martial Artists, how fast they were, they rushed in front of Zhao Zheng in the blink of an eye, each of them used sharp fists and kicks, and blasted out unceremoniously at Zhao Zheng, hoping to defeat Zhao Zheng with one move. But when their fists and feet fell, they all flew into the air and couldn't hit anything!
Zhao Zheng, who was originally standing there, disappeared like a ghost, and when he reappeared, he had already circled behind one of the leaders of the Spirit Fox team.
Eight-armed fist, double wind piercing!
Zhao showed a fierce face, showed his not very skillful eight-arm fist kung fu, danced a pair of iron fists, and smashed down the man's ears from behind. One force will be reduced to ten, even if he doesn't put too much effort into this set of boxing techniques, as long as the strength and speed reach a certain level, even if he follows the cat and the tiger, he can exert considerable power.
Hearing a muffled sound, the member of the Spirit Fox Team was hit in both ears, and his head was pierced, and he was immediately shocked and fainted. Blood flowed from both ears.
One move. Again, it took only one move. Zhao Zheng knocked the ball head of the Spirit Fox team to the ground, and made a ruthless move, which directly made this person unable to continue the game.
"Offended." Zhao Zheng slowly withdrew his fists and looked at the other two ball heads of the Spirit Fox team, who looked at him and their faces turned a little pale.
If in the normal course of the game, there are some bumps and bumps, which will cause the players to go off the field. This is understandable, it is really normal. But blatantly knocking people to the ground like this is a bit unspeakable, after all, this is a Keju competition, not a competition on the same stage.
The people of the Spirit Fox team were all angry, questioned Zhao Zheng loudly, and asked the referee's opinion. Even the people of the Fire Dragon Team felt a little uncomfortable, after all, everyone was in the same family, and they also passed on their voices to Zhao Zheng one after another, so that Zhao Zheng could restrain himself a little.
Facing questions and warnings. Zhao Zheng was unmoved, and was still determined to win this game with such violent methods. He was also unwilling to use such drastic methods to achieve victory. Everything was forced by Xia Bafeng, and he had no choice at all. He couldn't just watch this game lose and then kneel down in front of the grave of someone like Wang Meng.
Since Zhao Zheng moved his hand when there was a bow ball at his feet, he did not violate any rules, and the referee could only acquiesce.
Another person was carried off and replaced with another substitute, and the Spirit Fox team intermittently had four people substituted, and this was already the last substitute. If anyone is defeated again, there will be no substitutes to be substituted, and the rest can only continue to play.
Seeing this scene, Xia Bafeng couldn't sit still anymore, stood up from his position, stared at Ju Cheng, and showed an anxious look on his face. He never imagined that Zhao Zheng would use such an extreme method to compete, if this continued, the situation would not be in his favor.
As a bell rang, Zhao Zheng took away the bow ball again, and even stepped on the bow ball like the previous two times, waiting for the people of the Spirit Fox Team to send it to the door.
However, the people of the Spirit Fox Team already knew that it was powerful, and no one dared to rush forward to kill themselves, but collectively adopted a defensive strategy, and simply put up a tortoiseshell formation, and everyone gathered together and firmly guarded the western formation. With so many of them combined, Zhao Zheng couldn't do anything to them even if he had the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth.
Zhao Zheng was a little surprised, he didn't expect the people of the Spirit Fox Team to be scared so quickly, he rolled his eyes, calculated his heart, and slowly walked towards the western formation with the bow ball alone. Instead of walking towards the large crowd, he walked to the open space on one side, and if those people refused to come, he could drive straight in and shoot the ball directly from behind into the Merry Eye.
The people of the Spirit Fox team looked at each other, and the first few people used the method of sound transmission to communicate, they couldn't watch Zhao Zheng shoot the ball into the merry eye and ignored it, and in the end, a group of people had to rush towards Zhao Zheng together. Taken together, this group of people is much more powerful than just now. However, this group of people has a fatal weakness, their strength is different, good and bad, it is inevitable that there will be a difference between fast and slow, when the first few people run faster, and the rest of them lag behind. In this way, Zhao Zheng is only facing the nearest one or two people.
Zhao Zheng secretly came well, and once again used the grappling fist method to fight the enemy, and dismantled two moves with the person who took the lead, and then punched the opponent's lower abdomen with clever moves, knocking him out. At this time, another person also attacked, and he simply came to pack the bag, and neatly packed this person, knocking him down with a heavy hand.
In this encounter, the Spirit Fox team was even more tragic than the previous two, and two people fell at once, both of whom were seriously injured and could no longer participate in the game.
With the loss of four good players in a row, there were only two Sixfold Heaven martial artists left in the Spirit Fox team, and the rest were all Martial Artists who cultivated to a lower level in the Fifth Heaven, and their strength dropped sharply. Since the Spirit Fox team has sent all the substitutes, there is no one to replace the two who have just been defeated, so the number of people has also fallen behind.
Seeing this scene, Xia Bafeng was completely desperate, the corners of his eyes twitched, and his face turned bitter melon color.
With such a huge disparity, it would be too much to say if the Fire Dragons lost again. In the next game, Zhao Zheng led the whole team to launch a fierce attack, scoring a bow ball almost every short time, and soon equalized the score, and then launched a comeback. By the time the game was over, the Dragons had scored six points, far ahead of the Spirit Foxes, and won in an extremely violent way.
Many people are a little unaccustomed to Zhao Zheng's approach, but they can't accuse him of anything, let alone change the result of the game.
The head of Jintai got up to announce the victory of the fire dragon team and rewarded him in person, only implicitly reminding Zhao Zheng that he would get along with his fellow disciples in the future.
If he hadn't been forced to be in a hurry, Zhao Zheng didn't want to hurt so many people at once, so he immediately humbly agreed, promising that he would be restrained in the future. This Keju competition is completely over.
Walking out of Jucheng, Zhao Zheng's eyes swept around, and his eyes fell on Xia Bafeng, whose face was extremely ugly, and he unceremoniously said: "The ancient cliff residence is mine, move your things overnight, and I will live in it tomorrow." ”
Xia Bafeng gritted his teeth, but he had nothing to say, and then nodded helplessly. In this game, he can be said to have lost his wife and soldiers, and spent a lot of money and favors, but he ended up so dismal and lost his home. (To be continued......)
